Alocasia Regal Shield True Mint Variegated

Alocasia Regal Shield True Mint Variegated — exact specimen pictured. Variegation: mint. Rooted in sphagnum moss.

The Vibe: Soft, cool and almost glowing, she's the plant you'll find yourself checking on first thing in the morning. Her larger heart leaf is nearly all pale mint, with fine green lines tracing each vein like embroidery. Her smaller leaf goes the other way, deep green dusted in mint, so the pair feels like a before-and-after of the same daydream.

Regal Shield is a big, bold classic grown for broad shield leaves and real stature. True Mint forms swap that dark drama for a misty, luminous wash, and collectors prize them because the effect is so rarely this even across a blade. In a bright room she softens everything around her.

A leaf this close to all-mint is not something we see often, so she's a one-time offering.

What You Will Receive:

• 🌱 The Exact Plant Pictured: The very Regal Shield True Mint in these photos — the near-all-mint heart leaf and her mint-dusted little sister — rooted in sphagnum moss.
• ✨ A note on her variegation: Her larger leaf is almost entirely mint while the smaller is mostly green with dusting; future leaves may land anywhere between the two, and that can't be guaranteed.

Grower's Pro Tip:
Pale mint tissue has less chlorophyll, so she wants bright, filtered light with no harsh direct sun and steady humidity to keep those leaf edges supple. Water when the sphagnum is just turning from damp to dry. As she sizes up toward shield-leaf proportions, move her into our premium Alocasia mix, Root-Phoria Diva, in a slightly wider pot.
